Rotating log (default)
By default the CHARON VM default CHARON utilizes a so-called "rotating log" methodmechanism. This means that a new default log file is always created each time the CHARON VM starts and can switch to another log file if the size of the log file exceeds 64Kb (previous log files are keptthis behavior can be changed with the "set session log_file_size" and "set session log_rotation_period" parameters; see more details in the "General Settings" chapter of this guide).
This mode is turned on if all the log parameters above are disabled (commented out) or the "session_log" parameter is pointing to a directory rather than to a file. If a directory is specified, the log files will be created in that directory.

Auto boot
The CHARON VM Charon-AXP can be configured to automatically boot an operating system at start up by specifying the default boot device and setting the 'auto_action' parameter to 'restart' from the console.
Example: dka0 is defined as the default boot device

Network boot
Charon-AXP can be configured to boot on network if the legacy operating system allows it via MOP. MOPv3 (DECnet) and MOPv4 (LANCP) are supported.
Usage/example:
P00>>>boot [-flags ...] [-file ...] ewa0 |
Both EW and EI adapters are supported for MOP network boot.
